Have you ever wondered how rich Garry Marshall is, as of mid-2016? According to authoritative sources, it has been estimated that Marshall’s net worth is as high as $50 million.

His father is of the Italian descent while his mother has German, Scottish and English ancestors. Garry went to De Witt Clinton High School, together with “Spider-Man” creator Steve Ditko.

Marshall’s career started in 1959 as a joke writer for well-known comedians such as Phil Foster and Joey Bishop, and his first writing job was on “The Tonight Show” with Jack Paar (1959-1961). He moved to Hollywood in 1961 and met Jerry Belson, with whomhe teamed-up and wrote for television, working on “The Danny Thomas Show” (1961-1964), “The Joey Bishop Show” (1961-1965), “The Dick Van Dyke Show” (1961-1966), and “The Lucy Show” (1962-1968). Marshall’s first producing job was “Hey, Landlord”, which was aired for one season from 1966 to 1967. This early work undoubtedly increased his net worth.

However, Marshall’s most notable project was “Happy Days”, a television sitcom that was aired from 1974 to 1984 on ABC. Two other successful series were “Laverne & Shirley” (1976-1983), and “Mork & Mindy” (1978-1982).

He again paired Gere and Roberts in “Runaway Bride” (1999) and gave Anne Hathaway a leading role in “The Princess Diaries” (2001).
